CRICKET MATCH.
The Cricket Match between the Okain's Bay Club and the Akaroa Academy, was played on the ground of the latter, on Monday last, New Year's Day.

The Okain's Bay Club was invited to luncheon by the Akaroa Club, which was supplied by Miss Johnston, and was of the very best description. Mr. Wagstaff supplied refreshments to the players during the day gratis.
